I think a lot of people want to
be someone,
but we are so scared that if we try, we won't be as good as everyone imagines we could be

"Every man, knowing to the smallest detail all the complexity of the conditions surrounding him, involuntarily assumes that the complexity of these conditions and the difficulty of comprehending them are only his personal, accidental peculiarity, and never thinks that others are surrounded by the same complexity as he is."
-Leo Tolstoy; Anna Karenina

Two a.m. You know. The person you call at two a.m. and, no matter what, you can count on them. Even if they're asleep or its cold or you need to be bailed out of jail... they'll come for you. It's like,the highest level of friendship.

“Summertime, I think, is a collective unconscious. We all remember the notes that made up the song of the ice cream man; we all know what it feels like to brand our thighs on a playground slide that's heated up like a knife in a fire; we all have lain on our backs withour eyes closed and our hearts beating across the surface of our lids, hoping that this day will stretch just a little longer than the last one,when in fact, it's all going in the other direction."

What do you say when you’re not enough to make someone stay?
What do you do when you meet the love of your life and realize it’s all about timing?
How do you accept that no matter how perfect you are for each other, circumstances get in the way?
How do you compete with that kind of fate?

The place where you made your stand never mattered. Only that you were there, and still on your feet.

Hard is trying to rebuild yourself,
piece by piece,with no instruction book,
and no clue as to where all the important bits are supposed to go.

It seemed to me the way it must feel to people who cut themselves on purpose. Not pretty, but clean. Not good, but void of regret. I was trying to heal. Trying to get the bad out of my system so I could be good again. To cure me of myself.

“No relationship is perfect, ever. There are always some ways you have to bend, to compromise, to give something up in order to gain something greater.The love we have for each other is bigger than these small differences. And that's the key. It's like a big pie chart, and the love in a relationship has to be the biggest piece. Love can make up for a lot.”

" It's funny how one summer can change everything. It must be something about the heat and the smell of chlorine, fresh cut grass and honey suckle, asphalt sizzling after late-day thunder storms, the steam rising while everything drips around it. Something about long,lazy days and whirring air conditioners and bright plastic flip-flops fom the drugstore thwacking down the street.Something about fall being so close, another year, another Christmas, another beginning. So much in one summer, stirring up like the storms that crest at the end of each day, blowing out all the heat and dirt to leave everything gasping and cool. Everyone can reach back to one summer and lay a finger to it, finding that exact point when everything changed."

" Home wasn't a set house, or a single town on a map. It was wherever the people who love you were, whenever you were together. Not a place, but a moment, and then another, building on each other like bricks to create a solid shelter that you take with you for your entire life, wherever you may go ."
- Sarah Dessen
